Role models can be tricky

Referral from a client call yesterday.

 

Role models can be tricky.

Especially when they are media stars (take Steve Jobs for example).

All we see is the A-reel highlights.

Thinking this role model’s life is filled with the things we don’t have can be insidiously dangerous. The list of things that get in my way but not Steve’s way…

  • Not enough time.
  • Conflicting priorities.
  • Pressures from everywhere.
  • Not enough resources.
  • Few, if any, faults.
  • Plenty of courage and creativity.

Seriously?

Even though it was Saturday

Incline bench for core
The steepest setting.

 

Even though it was Saturday, and i hadn’t seen my Family in four days, i invested an hour for exercise – on the way home from the airport.

Balance doesn’t come with a perfect formula.

Running means everything to me?

Running karma
Yesterday from Twitter.

 

Lots to do for work.

A third of my team is out.

So i have to manage under less than ideal circumstances.

i could skip the three-hour wellness commitment this morning.

That would certainly help create more time to manage the extra load on me.

Or i could draw a line in the sand and not compromise my health.

It’s tough isn’t it?

Didn’t catch if these are prioritized. The first one is most important because it drives everything else.

 

What do you do when you write 2,922 days in a row?

Exercise.

Skipped the 40k roundtrip bike ride in exchange for seeing Simon Bailey speak locally yesterday morning. My body was whispering, “Give your legs a break.”

Planned for it and had gym gear in the trunk.

Nice workout at Gold’s on the way home from the event.

Disney creativity never gets old and never feels like work

Google map app
Yesterday was an “off” day for exercise, but the 3 mile walk was more than welcomed.

 

Love using Disney creativity (automatically)  to solve day to day challenges.

A short visit to Tire Kingdom for a minor repair was quoted at a 90-minute wait. Sit and wait in the lobby?

No.

Those 90 minutes allowed just enough time to walk three miles roundtrip to the allergist for bi-weekly injections.

Spring isn’t far away and you’ll start seeing people posting how miserable their sinus infections are making them feel.

Been there, done that (except Facebook didn’t exist back then).

This Spring, because of 14 years of injections, i’ll be breathing easy.
